A super decent bar which, surprisingly, wasn’t crowded at all on a Friday night. We sat outside on Graham ave, which made for great people watching. The cocktails are pretty creative and not super expensive. Bonus: the photo booth!

Cool bar pretty laid-back some obnoxious hipsters but they got rid of half of their food which sucks! Cute bartender and cook

I like going here for a cheap drink at night. The bartenders are the best. The unlimited mimosas at brunch made me forget what day it was though.

We had a nice time here on a Sunday evening. Not crowded at all. A shame considering the staff was very friendly, and they had a happy hour going on. They had some food options. We opted for the $ 5 pretzels. Big and soft. Cheap well drinks and decently priced beer. No TV’s or nonsense as far as I could see. Just a place to hang out and grab some drinks. Easy enough.

I never bother to rant on Unilocal,but i had to this time just to warn other people looking for a late night bite. Dont know about the bar, but dont ever order food from this place. Ordered the«margarita pizza» what a joke! 2 round pieces of barely cooked dough with a ton of tomato sauce and uncooked mozzarella on top. Terrible! Really? Who made this and sent out for someone to eat? Save your time and money. Hungry in brooklyn.

Bloody Mary’s never fail. The Bartenders are great, especially those with working knowledge of MN! Meet your friends here for tots and a burger, you won’t be disappointed!

Buyer beware– stay away from the tuna sliders unless you really love being ripped off.

I ordered delivery and when it got here I felt like I was robbed. The tuna sliders were two incredibly small portions and poorly put together. The pizza slices were stacked and the pieces got stuck together. Not worth the prices.

This place this place this place this place! Where to begin: 1. Bartenders 2. Ambiance 3. Drinks 4. Food 5. Events They get 5 stars each time, every time. It’s an adaptable space. Go if you want to pregame, go if you want to spend the whole night there and stumble out, go if you want to impress someone on a date, go if you are feeling lonely and want to make good conversation with the fucking awesome bartenders. Just go!

The Graham is by far one of my favorite bars in all of New York City. The music is always good and the drinks and food are unreal. It’s difficult to find delicious and unique drinks for affordable rates, but somehow, The Graham does it. The space is well organized and has a warm, homey vibe. There is plenty of space to dance and they’ve got vintage arcade games that the nerd in me loves. All in all, I recommend this place highly.

Went over to The Graham on a Friday night and wasn’t disappointed. Bartender is great serving up some good and inexpensive drinks. Can’t beat that. Music had everyone dancing and after a few drinks you may find yourself up on that dance floor getting down. Very upbeat and fun crowd. Ordered a few appetizers, hummus, guac and chips and the grilled cheese. Hit the spot and goes perfectly with their beer and shot special. If you are looking for a place to have some drinks, some appetizers, and dance the night away with your friends then The Graham is your place. After reading some negative reviews on here I’d like to clarify a few things: 1. This is a neighborhood dive bar so if you are looking for caviar and fine china on the tables then you probably won’t like it; 2. If you got your hair done, nails done, eyelashes done and your in your skyscraper high heels you should probably put on a pair of converse and enjoy the casual vibe(and its dimly lit so your makeup will be just fine) ; 3. They do have a full bar but I wouldn’t order a cosmopolitan or a fuzzy navel here although you can and the bartender will be more then happy to accommodate you but people here are doing shots, drinking Manhattans and downing beers. Overall, very cool spot in East Williamsburg will definitely be returning.

1. Unattentive sassy male bartender 2. Drinks my friend and I ordered were unimpressively mixed 3. So many better bars with better service 4. I wish I could make an excuse for myself to like this place… but I can’t. So I won’t. The end.

Bushwick has always been a friendly spot for me. Friends and Family are very important to me. That’s why i will go back to this brunch-bar, with a baseball bat… i may not be 6’5″ but i can swing like Babe Ruth. To the manager and bouncers from new years who pushed my little sister to the ground, yer getting struck out! In closing, suck my duck sauce you phony Impotent cowards. Love Bushwick. Hate this spot.

Amazingly I’ve never been to Bushwick… oops I was corrected to East Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The Graham is a divey bar in the coolest(or East Hipsterburgest) sense of the word. The Graham has retro dark walls, graffiti-filled rest rooms, an old Playboy pinball, rumpus room hanging lamps, and live DJs playing on weekends complete with a tiny disco ball spinning in the back room. The music is good! I stuck to the drafts, quite an assortment for a small bar. Brooklyn breweries were represented. The bartender was cool, the crowd cool & tipsy, and our birthday party gang obviously über cool and über tipsy. Fun place to hang out when you’re in the hood.

I was looking for a new place in Brooklyn for a casual a Sunday brunch, stumbled across some cool reviews and decided to check this place out. Though we were still torn about the decision upon entering on a Sunday and hearing a live band playing, our decision was quickly reinforced. Had to stay! This was especially true since the alternative place that we checked out was dead silent with 2 patrons… like not even a bit if background music. Smh. You won in that category The Graham. The décor is pretty laid back and the brunch menu is fairly limited, but certainly affordable. Each brunch option came with one mimosa or Bloody Mary. Certainly not perfect for the unlimited mimosa crowd, but it words for those days that you’ve decided to taper back your mimosa intake(though you can certainly order– at cost– as many mimosas as you want). They also seemed to have a self serve coffee station if you are into the coffee life(I’m not). I ordered the grilled cheese with a side of scrambled eggs that were labeled as being for kids only on the menu(huh?). Guess my” refined” palette doesn’t see age. The grilled cheese came with potato chips which was a bit disappointing. After looking at many of the pictures online I was convinced that all of the brunch entrees came with a side salad, but I never actually asked the waitress to confirm. My friend got the duck hash which was a bit spicy and did come with a side salad(though there didn’t appear to be any type of dressing, like not even a light vinaigrette). That was pretty tasty and probably a better bang for your buck. Will I come back? Likely yes if I’m in the area, but nothing about The Graham screams that I need to go out of my way to return immediately… well with the exception of the band with great bass playing.

Was in the area last night on business and decided to swing in here first to kill some time. Never go to a bar before a business meeting. FYI. Anywaaaaay…this place is cool and they have free wifi. I do this thing where I go months without cell service and take a sabbatical. It’s very cleansing. And them having wifi was very useful. The prices are cheap and they have a happy hour everyday from 3 to 8 as of this writing. They also have a board of events that are going on and the atmosphere is so chill. They also have really cool music and a space in the back. It was closed while we were there(6:45ish Friday) but I bet it gets bumpin’ in there. Highlight was this pretzel I ordered. I only ordered it to bring my tab up to $ 10. There’s no minimum but I know businesses get charged for swipes so whatever. The honey mustard and ranch that come with make it the best pretzel I’ve ever had in my life. Only negative is I asked to get it to go right after they brought it out… my bad… but I must have waited like 10 minutes(there were 5 people in the bar) for them to put it in the container… which, was sitting in the back on a counter. I had to bring it up to someone unfamiliar with the situation. –_– All in all though, I will be back.

On a Friday evening around 8pm I closed a $ 10.89 tab at The Graham with my debit card. Three days later I had a charge for that + a charge for $ 20 taken from my checking. For a refund, I called and spoke with two bartenders(over the next couple days) who needed the manager to deal with the debit refunds. They took my name and number and said somebody would get back to me. Nobody got back to me. I left a voicemail on the business answering service explaining the situation(again with my info). Nobody got back to me. I stopped by in person and saw another bartender who told that the manager had to deal with the refund. Manager was not there and again my information was taken and I was told somebody would get in touch with me. Again and still, no manager has gotten back to me. $ 20 isn’t a boatload of cash but an erroneous charge is an erroneous charge and the management should be happy to resolve the issue. I live in the neighborhood and was a pretty regular patron here but the absolute disregard to reach back out to me after four attempts is what gets them this 1 star review and sends my patronage to the other bars in this neighborhood.

I came here for a DJ event, and I have to say, I was really impressed by the sound quality, beer selection, and space overall. There’s a back room and a stellar DJ booth, with some of the higher-quality technology. There’s both outdoor and indoor seating, and the music can be heard pretty well from all places, including the bathroom! Bartender was really sweet and didn’t miss a beat. I’d definitely come back here!

Two star redemption for the nice ambiance and the friendly/apologetic waitress. This is purely for the brunch experience. The weather was gorgeous, I was in good company, and we were starving. We decided to go to the Graham to enjoy the lovely sun and grab a bite. There’s lots of outdoor seating and the place has promise. We were one of the first tables outside when we arrived at noon, but the place filled up pretty quickly. It took over an hour to get our food, and when it arrived, I couldn’t help but be disappointed. I ordered the bacon bowl, and when the description said«maple syrup,» I was expecting the real thing, and not the artificial Aunt Jemima imitation that tainted the dish. It made the entire thing sort of disgustingly/unpleasantly sweet. One poached egg was way overcooked, and the other one was cooked correctly. It came with a couple slices of plain white toast. The only part of the dish that I enjoyed was the bacon, which is hard to ruin. My friend’s sandwich came with some Ruffle-bag potato chips, but the sandwich itself looked better than my order. It wasn’t a terrible meal. It tasted like something that I might make with some odds-and-ends leftovers at my house. It just wasn’t restaurant quality. I had a taste of my friend’s bloody mary, and it was pretty solid. This place has a lot of good things going for it, but they need work in the kitchen.

I love this place. Awesome happy hour — 2 dollars off of all drafts and house wine and 1 dollar tacos. The bartenders are always incredibly friendly. I can’t wait to come here and sit outside when the weather is nicer!
